View on Google MapsIt was a nice experience with an opportunity to wear kimono and learn Japanese calligraphy. My friend (American) and I (Japanese) really enjoyed it. It was a perfect activity to spend time while waiting for the change in high and low tides at the Itsukushima Shrine.
This was a don't miss experience. The kimonos were beautiful and the staff that dressed you took great care and time to make it perfect. The tea ceremony was lovely and insightful. Calligraphy was just enough to make you want to stay longer and learn more. It was superb!
My family had an amazing time here! There were several options for kimono even for plus sized people. They also let us have a photo shoot before the calligraphy lesson! The lesson was clear and fun! The only downside was having to get there but both Google and Apple Maps were clear on directions.

We had a group of 7 and did the Kimono and Calligraphy experience. It felt much cooler to be in the Kimono learning to do some calligraphy than if we had been in our street clothes. The women that were helping us were very kind and patient. Great activity to do while visiting the island
My wife and I had a great experience. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. We had actually booked a 1pm appointment, but mistakenly thought it was for 10am, and arrived early. The staff easily accommodated us anyway. The kimono dress up and picture taking was fun, and the calligraphy class was very enjoyable and our instructor was very patient and insightful. I would highly recommend this activity to anyone visiting the Hiroshima/Miyajima area
We have the most beautiful experience. First our wonderful guide helped us choose and dress and their kimono. Followed by photographs in the shrine garden. Then it was time for our kanji calligraphy lesson. We had so much fun, we learnt the correct technique and were able to create our very own rice scoop to take home. We would wholeheartedly recommend this as an essential experience when visiting Japan.
Une expérience à faire absolument, que de très bons souvenirs !! Les tenues sont splendides et l’exercice de calligraphie très intéressant.
Love, loved, loved the calligraphy class. The staff was very attentive and patient as we learned basic words to try on our own. Having to write on our own rice paddle was a nice touch as we got to bring home part of the memory. Highly recommend this activity.
It was a wonderful experience learning the strokes. We get to choose the kanji character and practice it before writing it on the wooden scoop. We get to write our name in hiragana or katakana as well! Overall, I loved it. Thanks for letting me pick a kanji character that was not on the list!
This is a small intimate experience which I found to be joyous. My son and I learned so much and our teacher was just magical. I was hesitant about putting on a kimono at my age (69!) and my shape ( rounded in the middle area), but the ladies were so kind and gentle, they treated me like royalty. The actual process of brush work calligraphy is fascinating. This place is so very very special. If you want a calligraphic experience this is THE one to go to. It was dream come true for me, it will be in my memories forever.
